2 Line Movie Reviews
Dec. 11th, 2012 11:19 amDisclaimer: Most of these films were NOT ones that I picked, but I watched them anyway.
Rambo II (second blood?) My son loved Rambo 1 and so I agreed to get him the next ... 2? 2? Anyhoo, it wasn't nearly as bad as I'd feared. Not great, but certainly watchable. And Yeah ... Sylvester was pretty hot when he was young.
Red Where the hell was I when this movie came out?? I'd never even heard of it before, and it's a pretty A list cast. Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Jon Malcovich(sp?) Helen Murrin(sp) Richard Dryfus and ...ugh, I can't think of his name.... The guy who plays Dr. McCoy in the new Trek movies.
Great action, great cast, pretty fun story etc etc. Really good action movie.
Ted Oh man, my 9 yo son REALLY wants to see this. And he can. When he's twenty. This movie had some really funny moments, but over all wasn't nearly as funny as I thought it would be.
Expendables I and II Exactly what you'd think they would be. Actually, probably a bit better than I'd expected. Some really stupid throw-away lines though.
Wreck it Ralph My husband saw it first, and really didn't like it, so I was expecting to hate it and was pleasantly surprised. It's not amazing, but it was fun and cute and more than watchable.
Snakes on a Plane WHAT THE EVER LOVING FUCK? This was OMG so bad on every single level. I knew it wasn't an oscar winner or anything, but I really expected more from Samuel Jackson. *shakes finger at him* Even putting any and all rl knowledge of snakes aside, this movie was just shit. I am disappoint.
Promethues The prequel to Aliens? *sigh* Aside from the movie people making confusing choices: (why? Why would you hire a young person to play a really, really old person? I assumed that we would see this 'old' person in their younger form, hence them slathering on unrealistic wrinkles on said young person, but no. I guess there were no old actors available that day?) this film was 'shout at the tv' stupid.
Really? You have your doctorate in ... alienology or sumsuch, and yet ... YOU TAKE YOUR HELMET OFF ALL OF 20 SECONDS AFTER LANDING ON A STRANGE PLANET? ALL OF YOU? Really, they deserved everything they got. EVERYTHING. Plus questions. WHY? Who? Was she his daughter? Why did they send so many stupid people into space? WHY?
Seeking a Friend for the End of the World
BRB. Going to kill myself. For reals. Sweet. Quirky. OMG Depressing.
Juno So ... he wasn't gay? I really expected more from this movie.
Looper Did I review this one already? I looked back and didn't see it so ...
I liked it! It had a couple of angles that I really hadn't expected, and managed to be futuristic without being all HEY LOOK AT THESE FUTURISTIC THINGS THAT WE HAVE IN THIS MOVIE!
That's it for now. Anyone seen anything good? Honestly, we were going to see a movie the other night and there was nothing that really sparked my interest.
